2020 Group

We are members of The 2020 Innovation Group, a leading membership organisation for progressive accountants and tax professionals in the United Kingdom and Ireland. It was founded in the 1990s by three of the best-known consultants and seminar leaders in the profession, Ian Fletcher, Chris Frederiksen, and Gordon Gilchrist.

They recognised that historical compliance services were likely to be limited growth areas for accountants and that progressive firms would need to offer their clients more value-added services. For that, new tools and ideas would be needed. Ian, Chris and Gordon also recognised that firms would need to improve their efficiency dramatically and embrace new technology.

Through our membership in the 2020 Group, we have access to the latest ideas and support to help YOU grow your business and make it last.

Traditionally, many solicitors have not focused on providing a debt recovery solution for micro-SMEs due to the perceived small scale, ad-hoc nature of this work. Those that do are often costly, which has meant debt collection agencies (DCAs) have usually been the first choice for business owners to recoup money owed. However, cost-effective alternatives are emerging, such as Debt Guard Solicitors, that operate on a different model to most law firms and DCAs.
